ATTENTION: In March of 2020, in accordance with NRS 4.020, Governor Steve Sisolak will review population increases in all Townships to identify whether growth justifies the addition of another Justice of the Peace in any Township. If a new Justice of the Peace is required, there will be a special candidate filing period for the election of the new Justice of the Peace in 2020. However, NRS 281.055 prohibits filing for more than one office in the same election.

M��� / A������� B������General Information About Mail /Absentee Ballots

! Call (702) 455-6552 to have a Mail/Absentee Ballot Request sent to you.

! A printable request form is available by logging-in to “Registered Voter Services” at https://www.clarkcountynv.gov/election/Pages/VoterServices.aspx and selecting “Request a Mail/Absentee Ballot” from the dropdown menu.

If you cannot sign because of a disability, you may use a signature stamp pursuant to NRS 426.257. No one may request a mail ballot on behalf of another, not even with a “Power of Attorney,” per NRS 293.313. You may deliver your request in person, send it by postal mail or e-mail, or fax it. See pages 37-38 for contact information.

What Is Mail/Absentee Voting: Mail/absentee ballots accommodate voters who cannot or do not wish to vote in-person during early voting or on Election Day. After the Election Department processes the request, the voter will be mailed voting materials that include a ballot and voting instructions. The Election Department BEGINS mailing voting materials as follows: (a) To Nevada addresses, 20 days before Election Day; (b) To out-of-state addresses, not later than 40 days before Election Day; and (c) To military and overseas voters, not later than 45 days before Election Day. (NRS 293.309).

How to Request a Mail/Absentee Ballot: To vote by mail, you must make a written request each calendar year. However, of the 2019 legislative session revised NRS 293.3165 to now AB345allow anyone for any reason to make a specific request for a mail/absentee ballot for all future elections, thus eliminating the need for an annual request if you choose this option. In that case, you will receive a mail/absentee ballot on a permanent basis as long as you keep your address current with the Election Department. The Election Department must receive WRITTEN mail/absentee ballot requests in its office by 5:00 p.m. on or before the 14th day before Election Day for you to vote by mail in the current election. May 26 is the due date for the June 9, 2020 Primary Election and October 20 is the due date for the November 3, 2020 General Election.

You may use the Election Department’s form or provide the required information on a piece of paper. You must sign all requests.

! If you don’t have a printer, write the required information on a sheet of paper for the Election Department. Instructions are at https://www.clarkcountynv.gov/election/Pages/MBLetter.aspx.

What Candidates Need to Know About Mail /Absentee BallotsObtaining Mail Ballot/Absentee Request Forms: The Election Department will give you up to 50 Mail Ballot/Absentee Request forms at no charge. If you need more, you must reproduce them yourself, preferably on card or index stock. Please note postal machinery may damage thinner paper and render it unreadable. If that should happen, the requestor will not be sent a mail ballot.

Distributing Mail Ballot/Absentee Request Forms: As part of your campaign, you may distribute Mail Ballot/Absentee Request forms door-to-door, at a table where voters may pick them up, at a rally, or you may include reproductions of the form in a mailing. You may not “collect” completed forms that were mailed to voters and bring them in bulk to the Election Department. If you distribute forms, you may adhere proper postage and ask voters to mail them directly to the Election Department. (sections 42 and 93) and of the 2019 Legislative Session made AB345 SB452important changes to mail/absentee ballot distribution requirements and candidates should familiarize themselves with these revisions.

Distributing Mail Ballot/Absentee Request Forms (Cont.):

! Use the Election Department’s form, approved by the Nevada Secretary of State.

! The Election Department must approve any modifications to the request form.

If your mailer contains a request form, follow the guidelines below:

Keep in Mind:

! Any voter for any reason (as discussed in the previous page) may now request a permanent mail/absentee ballot and consequently does not need to make an annual request.

! You may find who has requested a mail ballot and who has returned a voted mail ballot for a current election at: https://www.clarkcountynv.gov/Depts/election/Pages/MB_PublicRequest.aspx.

! See NRS 293.309-340 and 293C.306 for more information, as revised by (sections 42 AB345and 93) and .SB452

! Your mailer must clearly state that you or your campaign provided the request form and include the following in bold type as the first sentence on the mailer: “This is not an official elections notice from the Secretary of State or your county or city clerk. This is a form to request an absent ballot that you may submit to your county or city clerk if you want to vote by absent ballot. However, even if you want to vote by absent ballot, you do not need to submit this form if you have already requested an absent ballot for this election year or are already entitled to receive an absent ballot for all elections. Forms must be addressed to the Election Department, i.e., they may not be addressed to your campaign headquarters and then mailed or delivered to the Election Department.”

If you mail more than 500 Mail Ballot/Absentee Request forms during the period starting 6 months before Election Day, you must provide written notification to the Election Department at least 28 days before your mailing. You may not conduct a mailing of Mail Ballot/Absentee Requests forms after the 35th day before Election Day. To avoid problems, as soon as possible set up an appointment with the Election Department to coordinate your mailing by calling (702) 455-2944. The Election Department will keep all information confidential. At your request, the Election Department will “track” the return of Mail Ballot/Absentee Request forms.

If a new Justice of the Peace is required, there will be a special candidate filing period for the election of the new Justice of the Peace in 2020. However, NRS 281.055 prohibits filing for more than one office in the same election. If you have already filed for candidacy in January, you will be ineligible to file for a new Justice of the Peace seat, should it occur.

B������Order

When and Why a Candidate or Office May or May not Appear on a Ballot

Nonpartisan contests continued on next page....

Candidates with the Same Name: If two or more candidates have the same given name and surname, then their order on the ballot will depend on the following: (a) If none of the candidates is an incumbent, the middle names or initials, if any, of the candidates must be included; (b) If one of the candidates is an incumbent, the incumbent's name must be listed first and the word “Incumbent” must appear next to it (293.2565(2)).

Order of Offices, Names and Questions in Federal/State Elections: Partisan federal, state and county offices appear first, nonpartisan state and county offices follow, City offices are next, township nonpartisan office are then listed, and ballot questions are last (NRS 293.268). Candidates’ names are in alphabetical order by office and must meet legal requirements for the use of given names, surnames and nicknames (NRS 293.256, 293.2565,293.263, 293.265, 293.267). You may vote for “None of These Candidates,” in presidential and statewide contests (NRS 293.269). Nevada does not permit write-in candidates (NRS 293.270).

! If a major party has only one candidate for a partisan office, the name of that candidate will not appear in the Primary Election, only in the General Election. (NRS 293.260)

! If a major political party has two or more candidates for a partisan office, the person who receives the highest number of votes in the Primary Election will go forward to the General Election ballot. (NRS 293.260(3)(a))

! Minor party candidates and candidates with no political party running for partisan offices will only appear in the General Election. (NRS 293.257)

! If not more than the number of candidates to be elected file for a nonpartisan office, the names of those candidates will appear in the Primary Election. If a candidate receives at least one vote in the Primary Election, the candidate will be declared elected and that contest will not appear in the General Election. This does not apply to Justice of the Supreme Court, Judge of the Court of Appeals, District Court Judge, or Town Advisory Board Member. (NRS 293.260(3)(b))

# Supreme Court, Court of Appeals, and District Court: If only one candidate files for a Justice of the Supreme Court seat, Court of Appeals Judge seat, or District Court Judge department, then that contest will not appear in the Primary Election, only in the General Election. (NRS 293.260(3)(a))

# Town Advisory Board: If not more than the number of candidates to be elected file for Town Advisory Board member, the candidate(s) will be declared elected and the office will not appear in the Primary or General Election. If there are fewer candidates than seats up for election, then, after the election, new members will be appointed to fill the vacant seats. ( NRS 269.576(7)(a) and 293.260(3)(c))

! The office of U.S. President/Vice President will not appear on Nevada's Primary Election Ballot. Nevada does not conduct Primary Elections to select U.S. Presidential candidates. Instead, major political parties make the selection, generally (but not always) by means of holding caucuses. (NRS 293.137)

Nonpartisan Contests (Except Special District and General Improvement Contests):

Partisan Contests:

44

Nonpartisan Contests (Continued):

! If more than twice the number of candidates to be elected file for a nonpartisan office, then that contest will appear in the Primary Election. The candidates who receive the most votes, not exceeding twice the number to be elected, will go forward to the General Election. However, if one candidate receives a majority of the votes in the Primary Election, then that candidate will be declared elected and the contest (in contests where you may vote for one candidate, which are most) OR the candidate (in contests where you may vote for multiple candidates, such as Town Advisory Boards and the Moapa TV Maintenance District) will not appear in the General Election. This does not apply to Justice of the Supreme Court, Judge of the Court of Appeals, or District Court Judge. (NRS 293.260(5))

# Supreme Court, Court of Appeals, and District Court: If three or more candidates file for a Justice of the Supreme Court seat, Court of Appeals Judge seat, or District Court Judge Department, that contest will appear in the Primary Election. The top two candidates who receive the most votes will go forward to the General Election. However, if one of the candidates receives a majority of the votes in the Primary Election, then that candidate's name will be the only one to appear in the General Election. (NRS 293.260(5)(a))

! If a candidate is unopposed in seeking election for a Special District office, that candidate must be declared elected without a formal election. If there are fewer candidates than seats up for election in Special Districts, then, after the election, new members will be appointed to fill the vacant seats (Special Acts Chap. 100, §8(4); Special Acts Chap. 477, §7(4))

Special District Contests (Moapa Valley Water District and Virgin Valley Water District):

General Improvement District Contests (Moapa Valley TV Maintenance District and Overton Power District):

! General Improvement District offices may appear in the Primary or General Election and only when two or more candidates file for office. (NRS 318.095(2); NRS 318.09523)

! If only one candidate files for an office, that candidate must be declared elected and no Primary or General Election will be held. If there are fewer candidates than seats up for election, then, after the election, new members will be appointed to fill the vacant seats (NRS 318.090(5), NRS 318.095(1); NRS 318.09523)

! If not more than twice the number of candidates to be elected file for a nonpartisan office (but more than the number to be elected and up to but not exceeding twice the number of candidates to be elected), then that contest will not appear in the Primary Election, only in the General Election. (NRS 293.260(4))

! Special District offices only appear in the General Election, but only if there are more candidates than seats up for election in the Special District. (Special Acts Chap. 100, §5(2); Special Acts Chap. 477, §5(1))

! Public Property: If the voting site is located on PUBLIC PROPERTY, electioneering is not allowed within 100 feet of the voting area (NRS 293.361). Election workers will post "Distance Marker" signs at the 100 foot limit to distinguish the boundaries.

What Is Early Voting: Since 2000, more people in Clark County have voted before Election Day than on Election Day, primarily as a result of Clark County’s Early Voting Program (mail/absentee ballots also account for a small percentage). In the 2018 elections, 96 early voting sites were distributed throughout the entire County. The many neighborhood early voting sites provide eligible voters an opportunity to cast their ballot at a time and place convenient for them. Sites include shopping malls, supermarkets, libraries, and community centers.

! Long-Term Sites: At these sites, early voting is conducted at the same location for long durations, e.g., the entire 14 days of early voting or for an extended number of days. They are usually in high-traffic areas, such as major shopping malls and centers, the Clark County Government Center, or City Clerks’ offices. These sites have 20 to 40 touch-screen voting machines.

! Neighborhood Sites: These are short-term sites, i.e., early voting is conducted at an individual location for one to a few days and then moves on. The sites are in smaller facilities (local supermarkets, libraries, community centers, etc.) and ensure all voters in the County have access to a site located in their neighborhood. These sites have 6 to 15 touch-screen voting machines.

! May 23-June 5, 2020: Early voting for the June 9 Federal/State Primary Election

! Private Property: If the voting site is located on PRIVATE PROPERTY (mall, supermarket, shopping center, etc.), electioneering is not allowed on the property without the owner’s permission (NRS 293.3572(4)). A list of sites that do and don't allow campaigning will be on the Election Department's website at https://www.clarkcountynv.gov/vote.

! Permanent Sites: Each County and City will have at least one “permanent” early voting site. The days and hours of operation for permanent sites are specified in NRS 293.3568 (as amended by AB345 of the 2019 legislative session): The required days and hours are: (1) Monday-Friday, open for at least 8 hours, during times established by the county or city clerk; and (2) Saturday, open for at least 4 hours, during times established by the county or city clerk.

! October 17-30, 2020: Early voting for the November 3 Federal/State General Election

Who May Vote Early and Where: In Federal/State Elections, all voters registered in Clark County may vote before Election Day at any early voting site. Early voting sites are either “long-term," “neighborhood” (short-term), or “permanent.”
